The Issue

Last night the respected tabloid TV show "60 Minutes" ran a report on KerotheFox's rising divorce rate. What is happening to the nuclear family?

The Debate

1. "There's a simple solution," says Pastor Felix, of the Catholic Church. "Divorce should be illegal. 'For better or worse,' anyone remember how that goes? We should return to the good old days, when you got married for life and stuck by your partner no matter how much of a drunken, abusive, adulterating disappointment they turned out to be."


2. John Black, author of the hit book, 'Men are from Mars, Women are from Some Whole Other Place,' has a simpler solution. "If couples would just call each other 'darling' once in a while, there would be far fewer relationship breakdowns. A little affection is all it takes. So the government should make it mandatory: call your spouse 'darling' at least once a day, or face a fine."


3. "There's a simple way to boost the marriage rate," says gay rights activist Alexei Frederickson. "Abolish those arcane laws that discriminate against same-sex marriages. It's obscene to treat people differently because of their sexual preference. Besides, everyone knows gay relationships are more stable than straight ones."


What do you think is appropriate? As for me I am openly Gay so I would choose #3. My reason for this is that I can relate to this IRL. I don't understand what problem people has.

anyway please give me your viewpoint on this.

Ditto. Partially for the same reason you just gave, and partially because it doesn't affect the nation's economy. xD

Besides, the other two strike me as... a bit... you know, dumb/stupid/off.

I'd go for number 3. Not because I'm gay or anything - I just believe we're all equal and every one should have the chance to marry, regardless of whether they're straight or gay.

3. Two reasons:

1. Openly Bi. Personal opinion and what not.

2. It really does help marriage. I did a report where I watched a towns marriage rates from one time to another, and then when Cali abolished gay restriction, and they could marry, it increased by almost 3 fold.

In my opinion, if the two people involved want the relationship to work, it will. If they don't, it won't; and the sooner (and easier) they get out of the relationship, the better for all involved. And, as far as sexual ID goes, what two or more consenting adults do in privacy is their own business. Just don't tell me about it, don't spend my tax dollars teaching children about it (trust me, they'll learn on their own, and if they have a good relationship with their parents, it will be discussed), or demanding more protection under the law than I have. We're all equal under the law, right? Again, sorry for the rant.
